When two of the three counts are disparate and the third is commensurable (e.g., four uncles, six grandmothers, and nine daughters), it suffices to multiply one of the disparate counts by the other. This result is then multiplied by the original base of the shares. This configuration is termed the Restrained Total because if one group's count is suspended (Mawqoof), the remaining count that is commensurable must be reduced to its fraction relative to the other remaining count before multiplication. For instance, if the six are suspended, they reduce to two relative to the four, allowing multiplication of four by nine. If the four are suspended, the six reduce to three relative to the nine, allowing multiplication of four by nine.
